Teen-Age Love #87

This 1972 Charlton romance issue puts the mood front and center with a warmly rendered cover by José Luis García-López — a tender close-up of a dark-haired young man and a curly blonde woman, while a motorcyclist races dramatically in the background and a small inset panel hints at a kiss to come. The cover blurb promises that "Fate detours Jonnie Love into trouble… and the arms of a beautiful blonde" in the featured story "One Shining Knight," with Joe Gill writing and Jack Abel on art for the interior tale "The Stand In." As a bonus, the issue even includes a free pull-out poster of Dusty Dot, making this a nicely packed package of early-'70s teen romance charm.
